Chapter 820: Chapter 401 Defeat, Encirclement and Kill_2
“It looks like our luck isn’t bad; we’ve met these fellows from the True Word Temple,” Su Yi said indifferently as his gaze swept over the leaders from the True Word Temple.
Ye Chen nodded slightly, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth as he responded cheerfully, “That’s right, those from the Purple Blood Valley were too weak, their muscles and bones barely had time to act before they were done for. Hopefully, these guys can give me a more satisfying fight.”
The people of the True Word Temple felt their hair stand on end; it seemed they had encountered some tough opponents, especially the two sword cultivators at the forefront, who gave them a heavy sense of oppression.
Just as Ye Chen was about to make his move, Lu Yun suddenly said, “Senior Brother Ye, before we strike, could we try to force them to hand over their treasures?”
“There’s no need; they won’t agree,” Ye Chen rejected Lu Yun’s suggestion without hesitation.
Su Yi spoke up, “It doesn’t hurt to try. If it works, that would be the best outcome. Even if it fails, it will still undermine their morale beforehand.”
Hearing this, Ye Chen fell silent for a while, then nodded slightly before stepping forward.
“You should feel lucky to have encountered me, Ye Chen. I don’t like to take things too far,” Ye Chen said. “I’ll give you a chance now. Hand over the pills, Origin Stones, and other Heavenly Material Treasures on you, and I might spare you a sliver of life.”
“In your dreams.”
The group from the True Word Temple was furious, a rage burning in their hearts. They were considered the Heavenly Pride, always the ones to intimidate other forces; when had they ever been threatened like this?
“I think you should consider more carefully whether external possessions or your life is more important,” Ye Chen spoke calmly.
“Besides, to keep your lives, you must hand over a considerable amount of treasures. If you have too few on you, then there is only one outcome, death,” Su Yi added.
In a moment, the people from the True Word Temple were both shocked and angry, their fury boiling over. The pride of the True Word Temple couldn’t bear such contempt, let alone from their old rivals of the Green Flame Palace.
“You might outnumber us, but when it really comes down to fighting, it’s still uncertain whose deer will be slain,” the leading young Celestial Human from the True Word Temple said coldly and loudly.
“It seems you still don’t understand your situation,” Ye Chen said, as the people from the Green Flame Palace behind him displayed a formidable momentum, instantly causing the faces of the True Word Temple members to turn crimson.
But what could they do? Their numbers were simply not enough compared to those of the Green Flame Palace.
If they chose to fight desperately and break through, the chances of success were slim, and it was feared that very few would survive.
Yet, if they actually traded the treasures on them for a slim chance of survival, it would undoubtedly be a humiliation for them.
“Junior Brothers, don’t fall for their schemes. Even if we hand over the treasures, they will not spare us,” the leading young Celestial Human from the True Word Temple continued. “Let’s break through together; they can’t possibly take us all down. If we give up our treasures, we’ll just die quicker.”
Upon hearing this, the people from the True Word Temple instantly firmed up their expressions, feeling ashamed for the thought that had flashed through their minds earlier. They felt disgraced for even considering the idea of surrendering without a fight.
“I told you it would be of no use. When dealing with these guys from the True Word Temple, the best method is to just blast them away,” Ye Chen said once the talk was over.
With those words, Ye Chen swung his long sword, and his powerful Sword Intent burst forth in an instant.
Sword Intent became threads, shattering all laws.
Countless strands of Sword Light shot out from the long sword, enveloping heaven and earth in an instant. In the next blink, Ye Chen stepped into the void, his body turning into four afterimages as he charged toward the leading Heavenly Pride of the True Word Temple.
Simultaneously, Su Yi’s Sword Light flashed as he also attacked a powerful Heavenly Pride from the True Word Temple.
“Haha, just fight, no point in wasting words with them,” disciples from the True Fire Palace burst forth in attack.
In mere moments, disciples from both Green Flame Palace and True Word Temple clashed fiercely with each other.
Seeing the negotiation collapse in an instant, Lu Yun’s expression showed a hint of regret.
On the battlefield, the idea of seizing pills, Origin Stones, and other Cultivation Resources from the enemy’s hands proved unfeasible.
“Since that’s the case, I shall focus entirely on competing for Combat Achievement Points,” Lu Yun said, his eyes flashing with cold light, transforming into thunder and vanishing in a flash as he chased after someone in the Unity Realm.
“A mere Heavenly Human Realm dares to challenge me, courting death!”
Yao Yikui watched the newcomer with icy eyes, his slightly surprised at the speed the other had just displayed.
However, once he perceived the realm of his opponent, his mind instantly settled.
As long as he could slay this person, he had a great chance of escaping from this place.
As for being successful, he harbored little doubt in his heart.
As an elite disciple of the True Word Temple, with the power of three prohibitions, he could even battle against someone from the Seventh Level of the Unity Realm. He was absolutely a Heavenly Pride, for whom slaying a mere Celestial Human was as easy as reaching out.
“In your next life, please choose better eyesight!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yao Yikui had already made his move.
With a grasp of his hand, he seized a large bell that glittered with golden light, charging towards Lu Yun.
Whir, whir.
The gust of the bell roared like thunder, its might like a mountain, the surrounding air blasted open by its vibrations, rolling tumultuously like a great river’s waves, like thousands of horses galloping, scattering in all directions.
“As expected of a disciple from the True Word Temple, even at the same realm, the combat power far exceeds that of the people from Purple Blood Valley.”
Lu Yun stepped forward, the air shattering beneath his foot. Then, divine radiance sprayed from his body, divine power surged, and a faint golden light flickered between the muscles. It grew increasingly intense, and faint golden light sparkled even in his eyes.
Boom, he threw a punch and the incoming large bell rang out thunderously before being sent flying backward.
“This strong?!!”
As an elite disciple of the True Word Temple and a Heavenly Pride with terrifying combat power, much stronger than an ordinary elite disciple, Yao Yikui realized in an instant after a brief exchange that he had met a formidable opponent.
“This guy might have concealed his strength, but he has definitely not reached the Unity Realm…” He immediately knew that he had probably encountered one atop the Celestial Human Realm’s hunting list, otherwise, he couldn’t have broken his attack so easily.
“If it weren’t for the disadvantageous situation I’m in now, I would surely slay you!”
Yao Yikui cursed inwardly, but he also knew that it wouldn’t be easy to slay his opponent with his current strength and he might even be entangled by him, unable to break free in the end.
With this in mind, he smashed the golden bell forward and then detonated it, causing infinite shockwaves, wanting to use them to trap Lu Yun.
“You scum from the Green Flame Palace, I’ll remember you. Don’t let me encounter you on the battlefield later on, or I will certainly annihilate you.” He secretly swore then his body turned into a rainbow light, rushing into the void.
However, at that moment, Lu Yun abruptly appeared above him in the sky, waved his large sleeve with a thunderous roar, like a surging Vast Ocean, and unleashed a pitch-black Nether God’s Spear, piercing straight down.
“You…” Yao Yikui cried out in shock; in that moment, his body was penetrated, tumbling as he fell back into the Nine Li mountain range.
Lu Yun then gathered another Nether God’s Spear, mercilessly nailing him to a mountain peak, and then activated the Hell Furnace, beginning the Refinement process.
This person could withstand his two Nether God’s Spears without dying, his physical body far stronger than the same realm’s. Refining him would yield essence enough to complete a Dragon Elephant’s transformation.
…
While Lu Yun and others were finishing off the fleeing enemies from the Sky Cloud Region, the battle among the powerhouses in the Entering Saint Realm was nearly at its end.
At this time, only one Entering Saint Realm powerhouse remained for the Heaven’s Glory Palace, Purple Blood Valley, and the True Word Temple respectively.
Among them, the Entering Saint Realm powerhouses of Heaven’s Glory Palace and Purple Blood Valley were Saints at the Second Level of Heaven, and the one from the True Word Temple was a mighty Saint Venerate.
However, they all appeared somewhat ragged at this moment, with tattered robes, shattered armor, and blood flowing over their bodies.
Moreover, they were surrounded by numerous Entering Saint Realm powerhouses.
“Gentlemen, it seems that we have suffered a great defeat in this battle.”
The Saint Venerate from the True Word Temple had a dark expression, holding a powerful Dao Weapon, emitting tremendous power that made the surrounding space quiver endlessly.
